In the report, the analyst notes:

"Shares of RAD gained Thursday after drugstore chain released fourth-quarter figures showing a narrowed loss and an increase in its adjusted EBITDA. The Company attributed the results to fewer charges, lower overhead costs and improving same-store sales, offset by higher lease termination and impairment charges. It also cited growth of its wellness+ loyalty program, which now has more than 36 million members. RAD's fourth-quarter net loss of $205.7 million, or 24 cents per share, was in line with analysts' expectations."
